Well, I used their contact form to tell them that I didn't think it was a great idea. It may be that they are not interested, which is fine, but there is no point moaning about something if you don't make the effort to contact the people responsible, so I did.

Also like the album (and UFO was the first proper gig I went to), but can't listen to it at home as it brings back bad memories for my wife so I don't listen to it much. Like you though, I was not really that much of a fan of their studio albums.

We do does your mother know - generally towards the end as it goes down so well.

That would work. Or maybe even put prices on them, there’s an idea!

My sr1000 barts which will be the same as the 1006 are different from the standard range, but also different from the later 5005 range, no idea what they are unfortunately. I assume the east preamp had a flat flat mode which let you know what they sounded like

In general yes, for the standard barts, but the barts in the 5005 are a completely different type, and although I bought some nords to replace them, I never did because they are in a completely different league to the barts in the normal range.

Which will still be worth orders of magnitude more than ours after march!

I can't be bothered to ask the first time, rather than keep asking. If it doesn't have a price I obviously can't afford it.

Well, thats what you get for not listening to the instructions. Was it, "go and listen to some guy isolated on youtube"? No, it was "go and listen to spotify". If you had done that you wouldn't have been able to hear the bass properly and you could convince yourself you were doing the right thing The only time I have had to relearn is when I have either hashed a version together as I had to learn 20 songs in a week for a gig, and it got ingrained (like moondance), or if I join another group who are doing the same song, and it has turned out that over the years of doing it in another band you have drifted so far from the original it doesn't fit, which is the situations I find myself in. I think both are a bit tricky really, once you have learned a song, changing it is really really hard. After all, I have no idea how I play those songs, I just tell my brain we are playing that song, it tells my fingers and then we get on with it

It is - price is the only thing that really identifies them. I go in thinking, well, I am sort of interested in a player series jazz bass. I don't know much about fenders, they all look similar. I have a budget of around £600 ish, so what is in that bracket. <looks> oh.. so nothing then.

Were you expecting it to recover?

Because some people want it, some people don't. Why does anyone buy a P bass? I have no idea but people seem to want to so it should be offered.

That is pretty bad on a new bass.

So I went into PMT which was the first time in a month, I was in bristol on my own as my wife was off looking round some show thing. I wandered around lookng at stuff, when I wandered into the bass section as people mentioned, there were no prices on anything, and it occured to me how little it makes me want to look at stuff. Looking briefly at the wall with the fenders, because I had a sort of interest in one of those player jazzes, I didn't know what they were, they were all there, the all looked the same. Without prices I couldn't see if anything looked interesting. So I left and went and looked round the keyboards (that mostly did have prices).

I love the nostdstrands. I have a set of Big Singles on my 1605. And on my 2605. and I bought a big bar, which I have yet to use, shame it won't fit on my Maruszczyk .

If you get the bias Amp II application you can try it and see that changing the output transformer actually makes quite a bit of a difference!

Why not the other way round? Why is a Lakland not all you need and the Sire is what you want? But unless you are a professional bass player, you don't actually need either

If it is identical other than the finish but £1000 more, it is up to you whether that finish is worth that much. Obviously you will never get that back, but that is the way of selling things. Mr Stonjek (mr sandberg) did a talk on finishing at one of the LBGS and he covered the relics. There is one guy who does them and he puts quite a bit of effort into it, ensuring that the relicing makes sense for the instrument. Very interesting talk, so it is not just a clone like the fender flea basses or something Oh here:

They tend to be pretty good, although normally they want pictures and offer a discount first.

Our singer says that. He's wrong, he sounds loads better if he hasn't drunk, but I guess that is how he feels.

Law suit? What for - Public Nuisance and Outraging Public Decency?

1. 15mm spacing 2. the wood on the fingerboard is nice.

I would say both would be fine and are competent, and will do exactly what each other can do. What matters more is how they felt to you.

haha - I would be the other way round. TBH, I don't mind at rehearsal that much, but I do object at gigs. Either way, all things in moderation, quite often my group doesn't moderate very well, and we are shitty because of it. Sometimes it really is. Sometimes you join a group and everything is fine for a while, and those issues come out later. Having a look through the 'worst bandmate' thread, there are quite a few where there is some bandmate who originally was perfectly reasonable and then something happened.

They would need to as noone else is doing it! I read that as pants drawer. I am not sure that wasn't correct!
